Thanks for linking this, this is as interesting as the main post imo. It's funny how most of the results are as expected, actuaries as the occupation with the lowest divorce rate, while jobs as bartenders and flight attendants sport the highest ones.

What's up with gaming related jobs being at the top though? Gaming managers and gaming services workers especially.

I don't think it's gaming as in video games, but gaming as in Vegas.
> What's up with gaming related jobs being at the top though

If I had to stereotype based on US gaming companies:

-Long hours

-Relatively low pay

-Typically located around urban centers (so a higher CoL)

-If the controversies at Riot, Activision Blizzard, and Ubisoft are any indication then many game related employees are emotionally stunted and immature.
